Flow My Tears, The Policeman Said

Jason Taverner is a Six, the result of top secret government experiments forty years before which produced a handful of unnaturally bright and beautiful people - and he's the prime-time idol of millions until, inexplicably, all record of him is wiped from the data banks of Earth.

Suddenly he's a nobody in a police state where nobody is allowed to be a nobody.

Will he ever be rich and famous again? Was he, in fact, ever rich and famous?

Winner of John W Campbell Award 1975 (UK)

“One of the most original practitioners writing any kind of fiction, Dick made most of the European avant-garde seem like navel-gazers in a cul-de-sac”

Sunday Times
Dick quietly produced serious fiction in a popular form and there can be no greater praise Michael Moorcock
One of the genuine visionaries that North American fiction has produced LA Weekly
For everyone lost in the endlessly multiplicating realities of the modern world, remember: Philip K. Dick got there first Terry Gilliam
The most consistently brilliant SF writer in the world John Brunner

Philip K. Dick (1928-1982) was born in Chicago but lived in California for most of his life. He went to college at Berkeley for a year, ran a record store and had his own classical-music show on a local radio station. He published his first short story, Beyond Lies the Wub in 1952.

Among his many fine novels are The Man in the High Castle, Time Out of Joint, Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? and Flow My Tears, the Policeman Said.
